Serious Illness of Sunset Cox.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-"Hon S. S. Cox is
Il very sick man." said his private secre-
tary to re porter of the United Press last
night; sand l wish you would make it

writing to him about matters connected
with the administration of the Govern
ment. / believe there are fewer letters
received by him from his own district in

The letters pour in from the North, South.

have to remain unanswered until the Con-
gresham recovers.a

BILE to make landing in the
heavy surf, stood away for
the entrance to the Harbor. The
life-saving men went to assist the
schooner but finding her abandoned, most
of them left for their station about one
o'clock. Soon afterwards terrible ex-
plosion occurred, caused no doubt by the
beating of the vessel upon the rocks. The
entire amount of 100000 pounds OF
powder on board exploded. Every thing
in the vicinity was wrecked. The lfe-
saving station was shattered. The signal
station was completely demolished. The
